It would seem that GeForce 860M owners, after months of complaining, are finally be getting a hotfix driver. This is the post from the GeForce forums addressing the issue:

Just a quick update. We believe we have identified the root cause and are in the process of creating a hotfix driver. As soon as the hotfix driver is available for download, we will make an announcement on this forum.
 
Took them long enough. I swear this company moves at the speed of an Everest glacier...
 
Does anyone know if this affects the 960M as well? I know it's very similar and possibly the same chip. I'm thinking of buying a laptop with a 960M.

There are 960 users complaining there too so maybe, IDK it's considered a mainstream card so should be fairly popular IDK why it's taken them so long to fix it. A bit of a kick in the balls, i see alot of people have RMAed their laptops and allsorts too.
 
As the owner of a Y50-70, this driver is long overdue. The laptop runs a strange hybrid Intel/nVidia setup where even if the 860M is driving graphics it still runs through the Intel chipset as well.
